how would this fly.....

i am thiking about setting up a free domain service similar to that on that spaceports. as in where they place an ad on their site and whne it reaches a certain number of clicks that amounts up to like $12 they get a free domain for a year. sound ok?

That sounds great...go for it!

[lucid]

that sounds awesome :)

It sounds great, it gives the users a motivation to work on the site and make it something worthwhile.

Very good idea.

Will encourage users to sign up.

All FWP's should do this.

Sound good. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the Spaceports deal is actually a redirected domain to their subdomain. It would be much nicer if you offered a domain directly associated with the site.

So tell me Carl, how long before something like this materializes... is this a long term goal or are you ready to go?

[Nick]

Yeah Carl, get going! I want to get my free domain! ;) And it would be nice if it was like a real domain. Not redirect like spaceports.

[Carl]

yeah, i think it would be a real domain.

as for time span. i'm hoping to get it up and running early next year. theres still a bit to be worked on it so that will be the soonest i can get it done, i also have very important exams next year so it wouldn't be able to be a large term thing.

Carl, if you start a service like that I would sign up for sure! :-)
